Angelina Jolie is becoming increasingly frustrated as she waits to give birth in a French hospital, a report claims.

According to In Touch Weekly, the actress is becoming grumpy with staff at the private Lenval hospital ahead of her scheduled caesarean section on Tuesday.

An insider said: "She's starting to feel that the staff are starstruck and not attentive enough. She's throwing fits if she rings and they don't come quick enough."

The source added: "I think she's in meltdown mode. She's been getting upset if there's not enough ice in her glass.

"She's not walking around anymore. She doesn't even take a shower early in the morning. She just stays in bed, talking on her phone, typing on her computer, reading magazines and watching TV."

However, Jolie's spirits have been lifted by visits from her partner Brad Pitt and their children.

"She completely lit up," the source said. "She was laughing and smiling. You can tell they mean a lot to her."
